Question is my old PSU good for new AM4 build

[vjtk]

Hi

I have few years old PSU - Cooler Master GX 650W working fine in my old computer
I want to build new system - MSI AM4 motherboard, Ryzen 5 2600 CPU, Radeon RX 570 GPU

all connectors looks ok when I check, but not sure if there were some changes in PSU's standards, GX 650W is discontinued,

will it work just fine ?

It will most likely work fine, but if it's very old, you should replace it at some point.

In specification of newer PSU I find this:
- ATX 12V 2.31
- EPS 12V 2.91 / 2.92 and older

from Cooler Master GX 650W specification:
- Intel Form Factor ATX 12V V2.31
- EPS version 2.91 compliant.

does this EPS 2.92 means anything important ?

Pretty sure EPS only applies for certain motherboards that use both 4pin connectors.

It's a bad psu and it may even burn other pc components when it dies.
If you want to be safe, sell the CM trash and replace it
